susan rice is a bit player here. was he informed of the june attack on our consulate where they blew a hole -- where 40 people could go through? was he aware of the august 15 cable where stevens was saying we can't withstand a coordinated al qaeda attack? there are 10 militia groups all over benghazi. i blame the president for making this a death trap. i blame the president for not having assets available to help these people for eight hours. we need a select committee not only to look at intelligence failure, but how could the department of defense not help these people for over eight hours? and why did the department of state for months ignore pleas for help? we need to get this under one roof. >> can susan rice be confirmed of secretary of state if nominated by the approximate president? >> i don't know. i'm deferential to the president's picks. i voted for kagan and sotomayor. he had a very high bar for confirmation. i have a very low bar. i'm going to listen to what susan rice has to say, put her entire record i
